"Brat, you!"
Being directly picked up by Aoba and thrown onto the bed, and then hearing what he said, how could she not understand what this lecherous brat was trying to do?
'This brat is really infuriating, thinking about nothing but these indecent things all day long.'
'And besides, who does something like this while making someone think about something as important as marriage?'
'How am I supposed to think?'
Right now, just imagining what was about to happen next already made her feel a bit…
Tsunade felt extremely annoyed, but Aoba had no intention of giving her much time to think.
After tossing Tsunade onto the bed, he naturally wrapped an arm around her waist.
His other hand seemed to find her weakness as if it were guided automatically.
"Mmm~"
Tsunade instinctively let out a muffled sound.
A trace of affection flowed through her, her pretty face turning bright red.
'Damn it, it is all this lecherous brat's fault. He turned me into this kind of person, someone who would… the moment he touches me...'
But right now she could only glare fiercely at the infuriating brat in front of her who had so easily grasped her weakness.
"Sensei, do you want to start timing it?"
Aoba wrapped his arms around Tsunade's waist, enjoying the softness against him while teasing her.
"W-What… what do you mean?"
Tsunade bit her lips tightly. Her brain was already mostly filled with improper thoughts.
A small part of it still had to be used to think about the marriage matter, so she looked a little dazed.
For a moment she didn't understand what Aoba meant.
"Of course I mean calculating how long it will take for Sensei to finish thinking it through."
Aoba said teasingly while grinding his teeth slightly.
"You bastard!"
Tsunade tilted her head back a little, trembling with anger.
"So it seems Sensei has no objections then?"
As he spoke, Aoba had already moved forward.
"Damn it! Brat… don't get so full of yourself!"
Tsunade immediately bit down hard on her red lips, refusing to let herself make the kind of sound that would resemble a loser's.
Right after that, strange markings began to appear from her forehead.
Even though things had only just started, she had already used her trump card, the Yin Seal.
Then she turned the situation around, determined to suppress Aoba and make this brat understand what it meant to respect one's teacher.
The battle became intense the moment it began.
However, Tsunade had barely held her ground for long before she was pushed back again.
From Aoba's angle right now, all he could see was Tsunade's fair and beautiful back, along with her constantly swaying golden ponytail.
He couldn't see her expression at the moment, but judging from her reactions, she was clearly deeply immersed in it.
"Sensei, how's the thinking going?", He quickly took the chance to ask.
"Huh? Sh-Shut… shut up!"
Hearing that snapped Tsunade back to her senses slightly. She hadn't been thinking about that at all just now.
After all, in her current state she simply couldn't concentrate on thinking.
But even so, she still had absolutely no intention of surrendering on her own.
"Alright then, I'll ask again later."
Aoba smiled and said, "Anyway, with my eye technique, I can fight with Sensei all day."
'A-all day?'
Tsunade's pupils shrank when she heard that.
'I will break!'
.
.
.
Just like that, an hour passed.
"Sensei, how's the thinking going?"
"Brat… ha… you're still far from it!"
"Alright then, I'll just have to keep working hard."
.
.
.
Another two hours passed.
"Sensei, how are you feeling now?"
"Hmph!"
The only response he received was a nasal sound from Tsunade.
"I see."
.
.
.
Three hours passed.
"Sensei?"
"E… enough…"
"Hm?"
Hearing the answer he wanted, Aoba finally nodded in satisfaction.
And at that moment Tsunade seemed to have lost all the strength in her body.
The Yin Seal could restore stamina and chakra, but mental exhaustion was hard to recover from. So once her mind relaxed, she immediately collapsed.
Aoba reacted quickly and caught her in his arms.
Tsunade was now drenched in sweat. Her golden hair stuck together in strands, and her snow-white skin carried a rosy flush.
But it seemed the matter had already been settled.
Although the process had been full of twists and turns, Tsunade had at least thought it through.
"Looks like Sensei has already made up her mind. You've sweated so much, let's go take a bath first."
As Aoba spoke, he stood up while carrying Tsunade and left the bed.
Tsunade's mind was still a bit muddled at the moment, so she simply let him carry her.
———
A moment later, inside the bathroom—
After the bathtub had filled with water, Aoba carried Tsunade and sat down inside it.
"Sensei, is the water temperature alright?"
"Mmm!"
Tsunade didn't really feel like talking yet.
Her mind still had trouble processing too many things.
Aoba didn't say anything more. After wetting a towel, he gently helped wipe her body.
Throughout the entire process, Tsunade was quite cooperative. Sometimes she even moved on her own without needing his reminders.
After all, compared to what had just happened earlier, helping each other bathe was something they were already used to.
Once everything was finished and they returned to the bed, which now looked completely refreshed, Aoba wrapped his arms around her and asked softly.
"Sensei, have you thought it through?"
"Mm."
Tsunade's previously unfocused pupils regained their clarity. She raised her head to look at him, her eyes carrying a hint of helplessness and fondness.
When she first accepted this brat as her disciple, she had never imagined a day like this would come.
Walking into the hall of marriage together…
But in the end, it was something she wouldn't regret.
"Brat, you win."
After saying that, Tsunade lowered her head again and curled up in the boy's arms.
Her whole body felt a kind of ease and comfort she had never experienced before.
It felt like she had set down many burdens.
Perhaps deep in her heart she had always longed for marriage.
But as a legendary figure of the ninja world, she had always worried too much.
She needed someone behind her to push her hard and make her throw those worries aside.
Now, thanks to Aoba's efforts, she had finally let it all go.
If she didn't want to hear gossip, then at worst she could simply stop appearing in public in the future.
Of course, Aoba would never allow gossip to appear either.
"Thank you, Sensei."
After hearing Tsunade's words, Aoba immediately broke into a smile and then kissed her pretty face firmly.
"Hmph! To think you'd use a method like that. Brat, are you feeling pretty proud of yourself right now?"
Tsunade rolled her eyes at him irritably.
"No. Right now the only thing in my heart is happiness."
Aoba said very seriously.
"…"
Tsunade didn't believe that for a second, but she was still quite satisfied with that attitude.
After kissing his face as well, she stopped speaking.
This brat had many faults, but who told him he was the man she had chosen?
